Weather looked to be perfect a couple of days ago, but visibility atrocious. Can’t see across our road ! Fingers crossed for next week. Might try and get the radiotelephony practical exam done, dreading that !

No doubt, next week, when I can fly most days, Typhoon Tommy will hit the UK

Lessons booked for Tuesday, Thursday & Friday this week
Today’s Lesson Cancelled due to Weather
Monday, August 31st, 2009Just as well I’ve booked one for every day this week. Looking at the forecast, it looks like quite a few might be cancelled.
Sadly no lesson
Wednesday, August 19th, 2009There were no lessons booked in for me today, despite me booking them last week. Wasn’t until just before I left that I realised I had been booked in for next tuesday and wednesday at 2pm
But, I’m still glad I went, ‘cos I took TWO exams !!!
I had been really struggling with Principles of Flight and Performance Planning. I now realise why these subjects had took me so long !! They were TWO Exams !!! Silly me !!!!! For some reason, I thought they were one.
So, I took the first one, dreading a near fail, and achieved an 82.5%. When I’d done that and the realisation of there was no lesson booked came, I thought I’d do the other exam too and got 90%. Well happy with that !!
Which leaves me only 2 exams – yay !!! Human Performance (how drunk you’re allowed to be to fly and Radio Telephony Communications.
Really pleased at getting these 2 exams behind me, because it means I can ratchet up the rate of ppl lessons and make the most of the rest of the Summer.
Unfortunately, next week, I can only get one lesson in because it’s jam packed with kp stuff. But full steam ahead after that.
No Lesson today :-(
Friday, August 14th, 2009Had to cancel for things to do with Karen. But, the weather would have not been too clever, I think, so nothing lost. Two lessons booked for next week – Tues/Wed.
